You're close Scott, can you guys spot some of the other big problems she had?

I count at least five.

I wonder sometimes when they video these types of things if they are to busy with the filming and not worried enough about unintended consequences.

They had no clue as to what the consequences were, that's why they will call it an accident when they explain what happened.

I call it stupid negligence.

That'll leave a mark Cute young gal, I hope she will be able to "get back in the saddle". Looked like the stock was too long for her frame. The sweatshirt didn't afford much drag once the gun started moving.

the point of the stock was into her shoulder ... NOT in the pocket. Eyes Ears Leaning back awkwardly.

I can't say I'd want to be holding the camera that close to being downrange from someone who clearly was skipping some obvious safety precautions.

Slugs are "safer" than a .243 rifle according the MN DNR.

That's the way to get your wife interested in shooting! I bet she can't wait to go back to the range.

it also didn't help that the person behind her hip checked her so she could not recoil all the way and the gun kept traveling. Bravo another person who should not teach girls how to shoot guns. That just frustrates me if you can't explain how to shoot the gun and make some one afraid of it you shouldn't tell them how to shoot it. This frustrates me because of the fact that the person in my wifes carry class new that my wife had not shot any gun before and had her shoot a 9mm he didn't tell her what to expect and she was very afraid of it and she moved into a .22 but now that i spent some time with her shooting and stepping her up in caliber she will shoot a 380 she decided.
